About the Agency

42 Macandrew Road, South Dunedin

The agency was established in Dunedin in 1968 initially providing support to young pregnant mothers and general social work assistance. Over the years, in response to changing social needs, we have extended our services to include professional counselling and group programmes with a major focus on supporting parents and children.

Our services are free or low cost and available to all. Our staff are all members or provisional members of their relevant professional associations. This means they meet and maintain the standards set by their professions.

Most people approach us directly but we also take referrals from other community agencies, the health sector and CYFS.

We provide services in Dunedin city and have in recent years developed outreach services in , Central Otago and Balclutha.

Our staff receive clinical and cultural supervision to assist us in giving you the best possible service.
